This means: All activities can resume for members who live in England. Residential activities and international travel may take place

Note: further information on what essential tasks/ activities for adults means can be found here. UK Scouting continues to base its guidance and advice on government health advice, which can be found at www.gov.uk/coronavirus. Updates from the UK Scout Association (“HQ”) are available here.

 

Group sizes and limitations: 

  • All non-residential activities (including young people, Scout Network and adult only groups): No limit on group size, although all activities must be able to safely manage the risk of transmission of COVID and, if this is not possible, they must not take place.
  • Residential activities: Nights away activities may take place, more details in the planning COVID-safe Nights Away in 2021 guidance
  • International travel: Visits abroad may resume but must follow the FCDO travel advice and still manage the transmission of COVID and ensuring that the trips are safe and accessible.
